1154 Lilly

Lilly is fostered in Delton, MI.<br/><br/>Meet Lilly, a beautiful standard Black Tri, blue-eyed, bob tail Australian Shepherd born on November 5, 2022 and currently 3.5 years old! This gorgeous girl was surrendered to us out of love by her former owner, who needed some medical attention of his own and could no longer take care of her. Lilly is a 50 lb bundle of love, loyalty, and sweet morning snuggles!<br/><br/>Lilly's previous home was with a single male, and she is currently being fostered in a home with a single female & 2 dog friends. She does fantastic in both settings! A couple or a single person looking for a velcro, four-legged sidekick would absolutely love this girl! If you want a true companion who wants to be right by your side through your day, Lilly is your perfect match.<br/><br/>Personality & Home Manners<br/><br/><br/> The Ultimate Velcro Dog: Lilly wants to be a part of whatever you are doing. Whether you are walking, gardening, watching TV, or working, she will happily glue herself to your side.<br/> Excellent House Etiquette: She is completely potty trained and house broken. She has great house manners, does not require a crate, and currently enjoys free roam of her foster home.<br/> Sweet & Social: Lilly is a happy, smart, and loving companion. She excels with food-based introductions to strangers, rides beautifully in the car (usually just laying down in the back), and handles bathing, brushing, and nail trims wonderfully with a peanut butter lick mat as a distraction. She also does great at the vet!<br/> Alert Companion: Like a typical Aussie, she will let you know when things are happening outside with an alert bark, but she is highly intelligent and easy to redirect with a simple "no" or "thank you" cue.<br/><br/><br/>Companionship & Lifestyle Needs<br/><br/><br/> Dog & Cat Status: Lilly does well with other dogs in a playful, neutral way and is currently being fostered with a 56 lb male and a 23 lb mini female. She could easily be an only dog or live with a canine friend. Her compatibility with cats is currently unknown.<br/> Kids: Her previous owner recommended no young children. Because of this, she would do best in an adult-only home or a family with older teenagers (12+) who have experience living with dogs.<br/> The Perfect Environment: Lilly is looking for a less active, calm environment in a country, small town, or suburban setting rather than a busy, large city. She would love a home focused on true companionship & being the center of attention!<br/> A fenced yard isn't strictly necessary, as she develops wonderful recall once she bonds with her person.<br/><br/><br/>Health & Energy Level (A Semi Couch-Potato Aussie!)<br/><br/><br/> If you love the intelligence of the Australian Shepherd breed but aren't looking for a high-intensity sport dog, Lilly is a rare gem. On an energy scale of 1-10, she sits comfortably at around a 5 or low 6.<br/><br/><br/>Lilly has been seen by a vet for a possible partial CCL tear. At this time, she does NOT require surgery, but she will never be a dog sport gal. Because of this possible tear, her physical activities are semi-restricted to keep her healthy and comfortable. She requires a home that will NOT be doing any dog sports or high-impact activities, focusing instead on lower-impact options—like casual hikes, light games of fetch, puzzle toys, and water activities like swimming. She also loves sniffaris and exploring with you! Her knee will simply need mindful management, and she will need to continue taking joint supplements to keep her feeling her best!<br/><br/>Lilly is incredibly food-motivated, making her a dream to train and bond with! She LOVES food and knows when it's mealtime! If you are ready to open your heart to this loyal, sweet-natured girl and give her the calm forever home she deserves, please submit an adoption application through Midwest Australian Shepherd Rescue today!<br/><br/>Lilly is spayed, microchipped, up-to-date on all vaccinations and receiving monthly prevention for fleas, ticks and heartworms. Proof of heartworm prevention for current and past pets is required to adopt from our rescue. <br/><br/>NOTE: All of our dogs live in foster homes with volunteers so we need an approved application on file to set up a meet with a dog you might have an interest in. Please visit our website for more information on our adoption process, our adoption fees and a link to our adoption application. We pride ourselves on matches that work for both the dog and your family. MASR is here for your support, advice and safety net for our dogs for the remainder of their lives. www.MidwestAustralianShepherdRescue.org
